Famous quotes containing the word tear:

    What these perplexities of my uncle Toby were,—’tis impossible for you to guess;Mif you could,—I should blush ... as an author; inasmuch as I set no small store by myself upon this very account, that my reader has never yet been able to guess at any thing. And ... if I thought you was able to form the least ... conjecture to yourself, of what was to come in the next page,—I would tear it out of my book.
    Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)

    Anything that makes you laugh. But the finest sort draws a tear along with the laugh.
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    She’s loose! She’ll tear the roof off!
    —Mark Hanna. Nathan Hertz. Nurse (Eileen Stevens)
